I have good luck with finding great dentists in all the places across the US I have lived so when my dentist in Bellingham retired I looked for a new one. Seems my luck is still good having found the Elis practice. What is apparent is the total experience from friendly staff to the surrounds of a modern and well appointed office to the Dr himself. This dental practice was built in fine fashion. Additionally, I am delighted that the practice is not in Bellingham and serves the outer reaches of Whatcom County, a big plus to rural residence. The view out the huge window while sitting in the dental chair is the best I have ever seen, the Nooksack valley fields with Steward Mtn in the back ground. The only recommendation I have is to put a deer stand on the roof top so you can hunt while you wait to see the Dr.
